btw @NSoiffer note that units can be ambiguous to "guess" from the
:unit
annotation.The examples from just this book are - as listed above:
coulomb
andcelsius
use the capitalC
letter.siemens
andsouth
use capitalS
newton
andnorth
use capitalN
fahrenheit
andfarad
use capitalF
west
andwatt
use capitalW
I'm sure there are other examples, this is just one book.
Edit: a potential way out is to introduce more properties. for the compass directions, there is a term of cardinal direction, which can lead to a
:cardinal-direction
property.Similarly for
:si-unit
and:imperial-unit
. Butcoulomb
andcelsius
are both used in SI, so one may even need:temperature
. A slippery slope of adding ever more granular properties...
